2) Best arrival procedure through Las Vegas airspace, such that we get
a view of the Strip (if possible) while not interfering with Class B
airspace?

Consider landing at KLAS. The downwind to 19R parallels the strip,
and the base leg has you aimed at the Stratosphere.

If you're rich. I decided not to use KLAS after reading the comments on
Airnav. Signature has a monopoly at KLAS and we all know what it means
when Signature has a monopoly. Don't expect to get away with less than
fuel + $100 in charges.

There is little question about Signature's desire to discourage piston
single patronage. However, Eagle at the Executive Terminal* located
at the north end of runway 19R is friendly and accommodating. Here's
a PIREP:

Mind you the cab ride from Henderson is $40 each way, so if you do park
at Henderson, rent a car - it'll be FAR cheaper. It was a good job I
actually won at Vegas making it essentially free :-)

Fortunately, Eagle offers pilots a free shuttle service to and from
hotels on the strip. But you'd better hurry. There's no telling how
the change in ownership will affect the service.**
